Series [v2,1/3] perf/imx_ddr: speed up overflow frequency of cycle counter | expand

In current driver, counter0 will be enabled after ddr_perf_pmu_enable()
is called even though none of the 4 counters are used. This will cause
counter0 continue to count until ddr_perf_pmu_disabled() is called. If
pmu is not disabled all the time, the pmu interrupt will be asserted
from time to time due to counter0 will overflow and irq handler will
clear it. It's not an expected behavior. This patch will not enable
counter0 if none of 4 counters are used.

Fixes: 9a66d36cc7ac ("drivers/perf: imx_ddr: Add DDR performance counter support to perf")

Changes in v2:

I assume that you'll send this as part of a v3 given the comments on patches 1
and 2.

Thanks,
Mark.
